Analyis of the race

A fair contest, won readily by the steadily progressive PRETTY BONNIE. She had gone up 2lb for a recent second at Doncaster, but won here in the manner of a horse who has now come to herself and can win again.

Nomoreblondes cut out a good paceand did not give up without a fight, but the concession of so much weight to a younger and less-exposed rival proved beyond her. She looks to be in the grip of the handicapper at present.

Cosmic Destiny, making a quick reappearance after being caught on the line at Brighton on Tuesday, travelled well but did not find as much as hoped for off the bridle. She is handicapped right up to her best form at present, but will get no relief after this week's efforts.
